Rihanna Stuns On 'T' Magazine Cover

Pop superstar Rihanna gets recognized as one of 'The Greats' in the October 25th issue of T: The New York Times Style Magazine, where she gets candid with author and filmmaker Miranda July on how being a black woman has affected her career.

"People are judging you because you’re packaged a certain way -- they’ve been programmed to think a black man in a hoodie means grab your purse a little tighter," she told July.

"For me, it comes down to smaller issues, scenarios in which people can assume something of me without knowing me, just by my packaging." She added that when she began to "have [her] race be highlighted," it had the most impact on the business end of her work. "That never ends, by the way," she said. "It’s still a thing. And it’s the thing that makes me want to prove people wrong. It almost excites me; I know what they’re expecting and I can’t wait to show them that I’m here to exceed those expectations.’" Read the full interview here and peep more photos beneath:
